“If I am going to die anyway, I would rather be a villainess or turn the story upside down,” Yeong-ja vowed vengefully.

Kim Yeong-ja was an avid reader who had read thousands upon thousands of books. She had often wished to be transmigrated as the main character of her favorite novels.

But one day, she suddenly woke up as the best friend of the female lead of a badly written novel where she had to die so the female lead and male lead could have their happy ending.

“Why do I have to die for them to be together?”

Yeong-ja was furious that of all the good books that she had read, she had to be transmigrated in the novel 'Loving My Forever’ where all other characters were made merely to make the main character look good regardless of plot holes.

Since she was a patient reader, Yeong-ja continued to read the whole novel despite how bad it was. She also wanted to know what would happen to the female lead’s best friend named Stella. Only to realize that Stella was killed off in the end.  

Now that she was Stella and knows of the future, Yeong-ja planned to change it if she could; even if she had to make the author furious.

First, she had to make sure she survives her death flag. But how will she do it when upon transmigrating, she finds that Stella was already dying?

Join Yeong-ja in her efforts to live and survive as a character inside a book. Would she be able to change her fate or was her destiny set in stone the way the author wanted?

Reversing Predestined Fate

"The Grand Magus understands that you were still alert when you just got teleported here in the castle. But not apologizing and talking rudely to him was unacceptable. He is of higher rank than even me so always show your respect. He is one of the strongest people in the empire. I'm sure you know that. You cannot challenge him so recklessly," Duke Henry lectured for the last time.

"Yes, Father. I will not repeat my mistake," Hendrick obediently agreed.

"Good. He does have a weird interest in Stella but that's because people born with mana that can be magicians had been less and less through the years. The Grand Magus is trying to recruit as many capable magicians as he could," Duke Henry explained.

Duke Henry then narrated to them the real history behind the Great Sage that was passed down from generation to generation of the Royal Family of the empire and the Dukes and Duchesses of each territory.
